Chapter 156 You Seem to Be Busy Tonight

Terrence never cared about people unrelated to him or how they thought of him.

Even now in front of the camera, he held Alexa's hand as if nobody were around and walked in with her.

Alexa was about to ask who the host was when Brenton appeared in front of them with a smile. Thinking of what happened on Mount Desert Island that day, Alexa looked a little embarrassed.

But Brenton didn't feel embarrassed at all, his eyes fixed on her.

"I didn't expect you to come to the banquet, Mr. Ramsey. I feel very honored."

Hearing Brenton's words, Alexa subconsciously glanced at Terrence.

She wondered if he insisted on bringing her to the banquet to know that Brenton was also there. Seeing Brenton, Terrence pulled a long face.

"You're also here, Alexa. I thought you would never see me again," Brenton said affectionately. "You don't have to flatter yourself." Terrence directly held Alexa in his arms and said arrogantly, "There is nothing between my wife and you."

"It's between me and Alexa. I think you shouldn't interfere, Mr. Ramsey."

The two men began to engage in a battle of words, and there was a strained atmosphere. Alexa was worried that it was hard to wind this matter up and immediately interrupted. "Mr. Darrell, there's nothing between the two of us. I hope you won't have my husband misunderstand our relationship."

Terrence's lips curved slightly, and he looked at Brenton with a vague smile.

"Did you hear that, Mr. Darrell? Mind your own business," Terrence sneered.

Brenton was soon overwhelmed by anger, but he concealed his emotions and still looked like a gentleman.

"Alexa, I don't want to put you in a difficult position, so I will do as you said." Brenton found an

excuse.

Terrence sneered with contempt.

He then walked away with Alexa in his arms.

"It seems he's still in love with you," Terrence whispered unconcernedly.

Alexa knew that Terrence was testing her again and took a sip of champagne.

"So what?" Alexa said indifferently, "How can there be fairy tales in the adult world?"

She said this to Terrence, but she was also warning herself.

Once she fell in love with someone in show business, she would definitely be heartbroken.

Terrence's cold face was expressionless, and Alexa didn't know his feelings at all.

Terrence took Alexa to meet a few clients, but she soon found an excuse and went to the bathroom.

Alexa couldn't drink much and felt a headache after a few sips of champagne.

She got touch-ups for her makeup, gathered her energy, and then walked to the venue.

A figure seemed to be standing at the corner. Alexa approached cautiously and saw the elegant silver-gray suit.

She froze for a moment.

Alexa had been calm, but now she became nervous and somehow felt guilty.

"Dr. Powell..."

Hearing her voice, Kieran did not reply as politely as he usually did.

His eyes were bloodshot with a worn-out face.

Alexa had a mix of feelings and did not know what to say. Kieran grabbed her wrist directly and

walked out of the back door.

Just as they walked out of the splendid front hall, the cold wind instantly blew.

Alexa shuddered, but Kieran suddenly let go of her hand and got close to her quietly.

His lips moved as if he wanted to say her name, but he said a different thing in the end.

"Why didn't you answer my call?"

"What?"

Alexa immediately took out her phone to check. It turned out that she had blocked Kieran's number. "Sorry, I forgot to pay my bill."

"Is Terrence making things difficult for you? Why hasn't there been any news about you for so long?"

Kieran didn't sound as calm and rational as usual. On the contrary, he seemed to be blaming Alexa after a shock.

"You know..."

"Dr. Powell, you don't have to worry about me. I don't intend to continue the treatment," Alexa looked down and said in a low voice.

"What?"

Kieran's gentle voice instantly became cold, and he revealed a disappointed look.

"Didn't you want to wait for your brother to come back? Why would you give up?" Kieran frowned.

Alexa calmly met his surprised gaze, "Because it is so painful. Even if I'm cured, it is meaningless." "Alexa!"

Kieran couldn't help but shout in a low voice. He suddenly stepped forward and held her tightly in

his arms.

Alexa was shocked with a blank mind. She stood still and leaned on his arms.

"There are still people who love you in the world. You don't care at all, do you?”

"Dr. Powell... I have long known that it'll get to this point, so I am not afraid of death." "What are you talking about!"

"I'm serious."

"It seems that you haven't remembered it. You really forgot everything."

"What?"

Alexa replied in confusion and suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure not far away.

Brenton stood straight beside the rose garden and stared at them with a half smile.

Alexa was stunned, paid no attention to Kieran's words, and struggled to break free from his arms.

Kieran had wanted to say something when Brenton strode forward with a sullen face and pulled Alexa over directly. "Alexa, I'm late."

"Let go of me," Alexa cried out nervously.

But Brenton held her wrist tightly and looked at Kieran with hostility.

"Mr. Powell, it's inappropriate for you to do this, is it? I don't think that's how your parents teach

you," Brenton gritted his teeth and sneered.

"I can't compare with you in terms of your persistence in pestering Alexa."

The two men taunted each other deliberately as if they didn't know each other at all.

Alexa was helpless and anxiously pulled her hand.

"Let me go!"

Kieran's eyes turned cold, and he immediately stepped forward to grab Brenton's wrist.

"Can't you hear it? Let her go!"

"This is between me and Alexa. An outsider like you can't interfere."

The three of them were in a deadlock until Terrence silently appeared at the back door.

In the dim light, he looked calm and reserved in a black suit, and his handsome face couldn't be

clearly seen.

Terrence did not make a sound, but Alexa was the first to notice him.

He had a strong aura, and Alexa even felt his hostility toward the other two men.

Brenton turned to look where she was staring, and a sly smile instantly appeared on his handsome face.

"It seems that you are busy tonight."

Alexa's delicate little face was pale. She held her breath as she watched Terrence walk towards her.
